But SA didn't "create" it. FYAD regular, Happycat (formerly FancyCat/Fancy Car) found the image on a Russian cat food website and made it his custom title. SA may be responsible for exposing the public to the image, but had absolutely nothing to do with "creating" it.

I've known this before the war began. I fought for the rightful correct naming of happycat itself. In that happycat was most likely coined as happycat by the original company. I've been told this is happycat.ru although they no longer use the image for advertisements.

Yep even the creator is still ignorant.

I'm of the opinion that the majority of this community mongers for internet wars to give themselves odd personal satisfaction like they actually make a difference or matter. We are the all singing, all dancing crap of the world, deal with it, and don't go and make up 'wars' over dumb sh*t like this. Don't join into the giant crowd to be e-cool and say you fought in the war. On a side note, http://www.fugly.com/videos/5737/zidane_benny_hill.html .........now go start a war over that.

Wow, I love how because a few people on ytmnd go raiding everyone else has to endure these GOD DAMN MOTHERFUCHING YTMND PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENTS ALL GOD DAMN DAY. THANKS FOR TEACHING US A LESSON MR ROGERS. I COME ON YTMND TO LEARN MORALITY.

Thank you very much for comfirming everything. This was the greatest site ever. The end sealed it. Thank you. It's too bad you will get downvoted by the pathetic YTMND 12 year olds who want to run off and fight "wars" on the internet. Sorry about that.

it would have been a full five but this isnt giving the entire story, what people gotta understand was that the war was declared on us... they just didnt know what was gonna happen when they said that.

NEDM appeared from a video of a cat being burned, it was not the figherfigher cat, for more info refer to "NEDM:Revelations" by tinatiumgecko (who was the one who started the fad by stating "Not even doom music"). The original site with the cat burning was deleted. It was sad video. Then titanium gecko 1'd everyone who 5d the site.

YTMND is full of hypocrits, 12 year olds, and morons. Simple as that.
Refer to max's ytmnd: dumbdumbdumb.ytmnd.com How Ironic that YTMND claimed happycat as their own, even though it came from the damn somethingawful forums. It's from somethingawful. It's not from here. Hypocritical idiots.

I think the main point of this lol, internet war was that Rude Kitty was extremely lame and was a blatant misuse of Happycat's image. Not that NEDM doesn't have some lame points to it as well, but Rude Kitty is pretty low for the internets.

First off, your an idiot, the war started because they wanted to trademark happycat, we started the war to keep happy cat as a free f*cking domain, it's not about it being ours, we want it to stay everybodies! GET YOUR DAMN FACTS STRAIGHT!

YTMND attacks only against the sheer INDIGNITY of using the image that we have taken and made sacred. So what if it originally came from SomethingAwful? They obviously didn't care enough to attack us for it. YTMND, on the other hand, actually has a backbone and struck against the blasphemers. I would have it no other way.

I Honestly hate it when idiots like you, yes, the creator of this YTMND don't get your facts straight. And as well I'm calling those who fought for the wrong reason idiots as well, we fought to keep it free, not because it was part of the NEDM fad.

Sure, but it still is fun as hell to raid.
You cant compare Bauman to us, ALOT of things on YTMND, and something awful have been taken from somewhere else. The only thing that seperates us from eBaum is that we dont make profit from it.

Wtf. Code Pink? Here on YTMND? Oy vei. It was all about a crooked trademarking attempt and then a cry for war by RudeKitty's horde of trashy fat girls. There's no room for pansies when the defense of the internets is at stake.

I'm going to try and explain this. Saying that this cat is YTMND's, is like ebaumsworld stealing the telephone marketer audio, and making it get more hits on ebaumsworld, and then saying it's theirs. It's the same concept. dumbdumbdumb.ytmnd.com

Nice job with the educating of the retarded masses, my good man. Also, that music makes me want to invade Kosovo, so props for that. Happy Cat, God of NEDM and Creator of the Universe, smiles on you spreading the true gospel of his coming to the people of Earth.

personally one of my favorite parts of ytmnd is raiding other sites...i'm sure most people knew that the happycat wasnt actually ytmnd property but the point is we had and excuse to f*ck with another site and piss people off and thats what counts

There was also happy horse. Also the domain for an english version of the happycat site was bought back in 2004 and for the beginning of 2005 then it was dropped. They never made the english version. However there was and still is a German version of it at happycat.de

I just hate it when someone ruins a fad like Happy cat with their version (like Rude Kitty). You are right however. Let's not get into these fights with Rude Kitty's fans. Let's worry about the Ebaums World site for now.

They've pretty much been beaten down. Now, if they find out that the attacks weren't from inside myspace, and decide to come over that may be a different story. But, for now I'll quote Max and say "It was a vulgar display of power."

The way to go about this like adults would have been to ask them for their side of the story. You know, find out why they are trademarking an image they did not create and simply ask why they aren't crediting their sources. But they didn't deserve a flamewar and all this undue stress. Despite our "success," we have only succeeded in giving ourselves a bad reputation to those who have never been to YTMND. Great. More converts for Bauman. This site 5'd for great justice!
